Summary: | Aims
Identification of heart failure (HF) patients with secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR) that benefit from mitral valve (MV) repair remains challenging. We have focused on the role of left ventricular global longitudinal strain (LV‐GLS) and reservoir left atrial longitudinal strain (LASr) for the prediction of long‐term survival and reverse remodelling in patients with SMR undergoing endoscopic MV repair.
Methods and results
The study population consisted of 110 patients (age 67 ± 11 years, 66% men) with symptomatic SMR undergoing isolated MV repair using a minimally invasive surgical approach. Speckle tracking‐derived LV‐GLS and LASr were assessed in apical views using vendor‐independent software. Over a median of 7.7 years (IQRs 2.9–11.2), 64 patients (58%) died. Significant reverse LV (↓ LVESVI >10 mL/m2), LA (↓ LAVI >10 mL/m2) remodelling or both were observed in 43 (39%), 37 (34%) and 19 (17%) patients, respectively. LV‐GLS (HR 0.68, 95% CI 0.58–0.79, P |
